New video series from PlaidStallions.com, each episode will showcase a unique and interesting toy from our archive.

I had a tremendous bit of good fortune on Ebay a while back (As some might know I spend a lot of time there!) when a friend pointed out this head mold. It took a while but eventually, a friend of mine deduced that it was for the Remco Mummy figure! Being a huge fan […]
